PBKS vs CSK Dream11 Prediction IPL 2022: Playing XI news, fantasy tips and pitch report

The match no. 38 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season on Monday, will feature the Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. This is the second time both teams face off against each other, as PBKS won the last fixture by a margin of 54 runs. Since then, CSK have rejuvenated themselves in the tournament, and are coming off a thrilling three-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians (MI) in their last game.

On the other hand, PBKS head into the match, looking to end the two-match losing streak, having suffered a humiliating loss to Delhi Capitals (DC) by nine wickets in their last game. Speaking about the playing XI, the Ravindra Jadeja-led CSK are likely to continue with the same squad as of their last game, where MS Dhoni played an unbeaten knock of 28 runs in 13 balls to take the team through to victory. DC also fielded a strong playing XI in their last game, however, their batting line-up failed to fire in that match.
